Table toppers American University of Malta and Atlas UTC Knights lock horns in the second double header of day 9. AUM and AUK remain the only unbeaten sides in the tournament - which is likely to change, unless rain intervenes. AUK holds the edge over AUM winning two of the four previous encounters with one match being abandoned. That said, AUM are in tremendous form this series winning six straight games and might prove too hot for the Knights.

 

Last time they met: ECS21.447 | AUK 107 def AUM 73 (16 Jun 2021)

 

Match Prediction: AUM to rack up a seventh win.
